Perverse Isabelle (1984)

Yes, madame.

And you survived?

Yes, madame. Very well.

Yes, she must. Look at her designer's gown.

Stop it!

Yes. Well, I can see you're not totally destitute.

No.

And what brings you in search of employment?

Well, may I sit down?

Of course.

Thank you.

Well, I'm a widow, and I'm very bored.

Oh, dear.

And what did your husband do?

My husband was a paratrooper for the French Foreign Legion.

Oh.

And France.

As in France?

No. That wild regiment that roamed all over the world, you know.

That's right.

Did he die young?

Yes, **********. At the Battle of Aragon.

Well, could you tell me more about the job?

Well, let's say, in a simple way, it's a bit...

Incomplex?

Yes, yes, that is it. Complex.

Complex?

You would be a companion, in a manner of speaking.

I have a brother who is a little deficient, and he needs to be looked after,

to be indulged in his little habits, his weaknesses.

He needs someone to read to him.

So...

What does he read?

Oh, pink romance, and days of glory, that sort of thing, you know.

He's not that demanding.
